Monday was Botox in Birmingham day
We went to Birmingham to have Trey's Botox done on his left leg, hand and arm Monday. Dr. Law said that we are going to have to start thinking about the surgery now instead of Botox because of how tight Trey is. I guess I will give them a call after the holiday and try to find out if we need to plan on having the heel chord cut within a year or repeat Botox in 6 months. We really wanted to avoid having the heel chord cut, sometimes it doesn't work and sometimes it has to be repeated and then the what ifs with running and jumping activities, but we've been stretching at home and he wears his brace. Hattie, one of Trey's Physical Therapists, told us the last time she saw him that she thought we were going to have to give into it, she was hoping like us that we could avoid surgery. But other than all of that Trey's Botox appointment went well. He has a blue cast and will get that changed every Monday until we can have it off, at least 4 weeks. He is good. He did get upset that he couldn't take a tub bath tonight and he went to where his school scissors are in the cabinet at home and was going to cut his cast off so he could get in the tub and have bubbles. We got the scissors away from him before he had them and calmed him down and told him we were going to take showers and try to add bubbles to that. It calmed him down but the bubbles in the shower didn't really work well.

I am sure that Trey does miss his bubbles but he will have them before he knows it. Keep us posted on the surgery.
